Is my laptop widescreen?

[teb3458]

hello there! i want to buy a graphics tablet fairly sharpish as i need it for uni. . . . trouble is i don't know whether to get a widescreen one or not as i'm not sure whether my laptop is classed as 'widescreen' (plus i don't know wether it will matter? lol)

My laptop is 15 inch appox' (bottom left corner of the screen to the the top right corner of the screen) and i think is running at 1280x800. PLEASE HELP ASAP! thanks people!

1280 x 800 is widescreen

It probably doesn'y matter as I believe most Graphic Tablets can automatically map themselves to your screen size. I have one by Wacom and it offers this as the default option so I assume others will be the same.
I found that once you get used to the pen input it is much faster and easier than the mouse

you sound to be just starting at uni ... allow me to give you a tip when writing essays etc ...

you've obviously found your ruler ... measured the screen ... thought about the question ....

all you needed to do is turn the thing over (bit like opening a book) and read the title .... aka in this case make model

using this key information - like most students .... we could then all open google ... search for the answer - and copy and paste huge tracts of text into the answer
